Conservative Governments wage cynical class wars in which they exploit the most vulnerable members of society in order to perpetuate their own positions of privilege. To expect them to do otherwise is naive.
Every time the UK gets a dose of this poison it takes a generation to achieve even the most feint hint of recovery.
The effect of the Conservatives' hatred is pervasive.
They are a disease.

If I attempt to write any sort of appraisal of this record it will just come across as some old cunt from the eighties raving about something from his young manhood, and something pretty parochial at that. But do yourselves a favour. Seven quid- less than 20 fags, about the price of 2 pints. It really is very special.

The Hepburns have taken to Bandcamp.
Let's hope that some of the stunning 'lost' material from the late 80s and early 90s resurfaces. I'd love to hear Up to Clatterbridge and the original version of On Your Knees Cowboy again. Dare I even mention Tariq?

Is Earl Lloyd alive then?
Did he survive
the copious poisonings
of diluted sunlit Sundays
bar standing thumb in belt
out in the green folds
beyond the town.
His gold ring, gold tooth
gleaming eye half closed
ruminating, reminiscing
and rolling his cigarred rs...
The sandstone nugget of
his skull
exuding warmth.
In a country lull his
heel taps time
on the quarry tiles,
those fists could level
citadels.
